Hello everyone,

Is there a paintbar coloring indicator for tick-chart that will change the bar color according to how much time has elapsed during the particular bar? For example when market is quiet and not much is happening bars could be blue and when there is a lot of activity and new bars are appearing quickly color could be red. This would make reading historical charts easier...

EDIT: This is for Ninjatrader.
